Bendinat is well-known both on an international as well as a national level for its golf course and for its castle. In recent years, Bendinat has become one of the most exclusive zones of the island as well as Son Vida, Nova Santa Ponsa and Puerto de Andratx.
The legend tells the story that King Jaime I after arriving to the island with the intention of conquesting it, he ate a supper of a soup with bread, olives, and garlic, and once finished he said ‘Bé hem dina’t ‘, the traduction in English is 'we have eaten well' although other versiones of the toponomy point out that it comes from the Arabian language as because Ben -means son of in this language. The Marques of the Romana built in the XIX century a castle of neo-gothic style in the mountain ridge in the area known as Castillo de Bendinat imitating the style of other central European castles.
